Isn't this the cutest drawing. It was on a blog post about tension, ever heard about T-N-T? If you haven't been looking at Quiltmaker's Quilty Pleasures blog posts you should. There are some very good tips, tricks, techniques and show/tell presented by Diane Harris.

I missed finishing my November UFO #3 Kourageous Heartsease block on it's due date :(! This one is designed by Claudia Hasenbach. Kourageous blocks completed to date and the fabrics intended for the last two blocks got a lot of oohs and aahs when shown to family. I sure hope I'm able to find the perfect setting for these extra special blossoms.

I did find time though to do a little sewing on Kordova Klosure that is Bonnie Hunter's current Mystery, Orca Bay. Steps 1 and 2 are partially completed. Step 3 was released today. I'm very anxious to get this one up to date.

My Mom and I cut from her stash pieces for a Chunky Churndash project where I'm coordinating a block swap with a total of 16 quilters. It's due date is the end of February. Another Bonnie Hunter design.

Komplikated (Bonnie Hunter's Patches and Pinwheels) travelled to Maryland with me, but didn't see outside my suitcase. You never know if time will be available so we must be prepared right :)!

What order these get done along with Sunshine's Block of the Month is yet undecided...guess it really doesn't matter too much as long as they get done! Spending the Thanksgiving week and a few days afterward slowed me down in the sewing department. It's been unusually cool in San Diego of late so a good weekend to stay inside. Wonder if there are any TV Series marathons this weekend?

I'll have pictures to post as I make progress. Hope you have a quilty weekend.

Born and raised on the East Coast and settled in 1985 in the paradise called San Diego, California. I've a passion for scrappy, traditional pieced or paper pieced quilting. I enjoy the challenge of using my stash. I have strong thoughts of applique and hand quilting when I don't have to keep my day job. Quilting and sewing have been passed down in my family for at least four generations. I'm lucky to share this passion with my Mom.
